As previously announced, The Worlds of Philip José Farmer 1: Protean Dimensions, is coming your way next month.

I'm happy to provide the first look at the cover here (by the extraordinary Keith Howell), as well as the full listing of contents!

All new fiction set in the World of Tiers, the origin of the Wold Newton Family, Khokarsa (from Farmer's novels Hadon of Ancient Opar and Flight to Opar), and the worlds of Flesh, "The Lovers," and Greatheart Silver.

A classic story, never-before-published stories, and a speech by Philip José Farmer!
